    And I'm obsessed with it.

    Who else has one? Also, any must-read books that I wouldn't have thought to put on it?

    Name of the Wind and Mistborn are some pretty solid books.

    I bought one as a gift during Christmas, and was able to toy around with it afterwards. They are super handy for people who enjoy readying. I know a couple of people who can't put it down. I read a lot, but mostly articles, stories, etc online. Haven't messed with a book in quite some time. I have thought about getting one for when I go camping.. since I don't like to haul around the laptop. Already broke one, which is kinda why they don't belong out there. lol.

    I'd suggest the Hunger Games books if you haven't already. They are decent... uh, 50 Shades of Grey? I've been hearing a lot of hype of that series as well. I know nothing about it though. HARRY POTTER, baha

    I keep hearing about 50 Shades of Grey so I look it up to see "Fifty Shades of Grey is a 2011 erotic fiction novel by British author E. L. James."

    So is erotic fiction the new vampire?

    I agree with Racquel, get all three books in the Hunger Games trilogy. I've read them all and they are all great!  And I think that's why Jess got her Kindle.  She read the first book in the series and couldn't wait to go get the next.  She wanted to be able to download it instantly.

    Also, I have to put in a plug for one of my favorite authors, Harlan Coben.  He writes a series about Myron Bolitar a retired professinal basketball player, but I don't think those are his best work, so don't start with one of those.  His stand alone thrillers are GREAT!  His last five books have all debuted at the number one spot on the NYTimes Best Seller list.  I read a LOT, and what I like about his books are that they usually manage to surprise me with the twisty plots.

Howdy, Stranger!
